Echoing his comments from earlier that day, Babcock believes it's unreasonable to compare eras in the NHL, but for him, the current parity of the league makes a streak like this even more improbable.

"The fact is, even since I've been in Detroit, which is seven years, the depth of talent, the depth of teams we play against are night and day different," Babcock explained. "We used to be able to win by throwing our sticks on the ice. That's just not possible anymore. That's because of the parity since the lockout. The reality is this is an unbelievable mark. I look back when Scotty Bowman coached here -- they won 62 games one year and they never did this."

Even though Babcock values the record, he says it's never discussed in the locker room.

"We never talk about winning here anyway," Babcock said. "We talk about process, and focus on process. When we do good things, good things happen for us. That's just the way we go about our business."

When NHL36 followed around defenseman Nicklas Lidstrom for back-to-back games in January, the theme that stood out was his consistent routine. Babcock knows his team will continue to be successful as long as the mimic the future Hall of Famer's approach.

"We go about our business the same each and every day," Babcock said. "That sets you up for success. If you look after the details, you get prepared, and you work hard, you have a chance for your skill to come out."

How long the Red Wings' streak will go on is anyone's guess, but Babcock is making sure to savor each victory.

"This isn't real. It's not supposed to happen like this. But when it does, why wouldn't you just get after it, keep it going as long as you can, and enjoy the ride?"
